I've always been drawn to strong teenage females. They are who I actively sought out when I was a teen, be it in a classroom, a book, movie or t.v. show. I'm working on a portrait series of these women-in-transition. I wanted to focus on their strength, thoughtfulness, and sense of defined, inspired character.

Rayanne Graff was a serious case of never enough. She always wanted more, and she found a way to always be the most. We were left at the end of the first and only season of My So-Called Life feeling the same way. Why wasn't there a Rayanne spin-off? Fast forward four years to her being the diamond in a pool of people with big eyes focused on her.
